Why the 2009 Volkswagen Jetta SportWagen?

Powertrain performance

TDI power very solid! Lots of grunt make this a fun car to drive especially with the 6 speed manual. The super fuel economy is an added plus. Really fun to flog around.

Handling

Secure in the corners. Very stable at higher speeds. Feels glued to the road and loves to be swun into corners.

Fuel economy

I was getting around 50 mpg on steady state freeway driving. But the performance was far from economy car- Way better! Can imagine what is possible when the car gets broke in. Excellent all around.

Materials & workmanship

Fantastic fit and finish. Materials are very upscale. Leather-ette upholstery is very nice. Looks and feels like leather standard. Extremely nice looking package.

Safety & braking

Very secure and safe feeling. Inspires me to drive with confidence at speeds far in excess of the speed limit. Rock solid.
